A HOUSE OF HAND-PICKED TREASURESAND NEWLY DISCOVERED PLEASURES


CUTThe cut dramatically influences the diamond's fire and light and it is down to the proportions of the cut and the skill of the polisher that determine whether its full beauty is released.

The shape is a matter of personal taste with the most popular being the round brilliant. Other shapes include the emerald, pear, marquise, princess, oval and heart.

COLOURThe closer a diamond is to colourless, the rarer and more valuable the stone. Diamonds with a strong pure colour are extremely rare and are called fancies. These can be found in a rainbow of colours from greens and blues through to yellow, red and orange.The GIA grade colours range from D, known as exceptional white on the CIBJO scale, through to Z, known as a tinted colour.

CLARITYAlmost all diamonds contain small inclusions - many that are so small they cannot be seen by the naked eye. These are nature's fingerprints and make every diamond unique. But the fewer there are, the rarer and more valuable the stone.

Clarity is the term used to indicate the extent to which a diamond is free of these inclusions under ten times magnification. There are three major grading systems for classifying diamonds: GIA, HRD and CIBJO. Currently a stone is termed flawless by the GIA if it has no surface characteristics or internal inclusions. It is deemed internally flawless if it has minor surface characteristics.

Clarity gradings are:FL/IF: flawless/internally flawlessVVS1 - VVS2 very, very small inclusions VS1 - VS2 very small inclusionsS1 S2 slight inclusions

I1 I2 I3 inclusions visible to the naked eye

CARAT As with all precious stones, the weight of the diamond is expressed in carats (originating from a naturally occurring unit of weight: the seed of the carob tree).

Diamonds were traditionally weighed against these seeds until the system was standardised and a carat is now fixed at 0.2 grams.One carat is divided into 100 ‘points’ so that a diamond of 25 points is described as a quarter of a carat or 0.25 carats.

CONFIDENCEYou can have complete confidence in choosing your diamonds from Weir & Sons, a family owned business with over 140 years of expertise. Weir & Sons guarantee the quality and legitimacy of all our diamonds and fully support the Kimberley Process. This is a policy adopted by the United Nations General Assembly aiming to put a stop to the trade in “confl ict diamonds”.
